You shipped it fast. Let's make sure it holds.
AI writes the code. It doesn't check the code — not for what gets you breached, or billed. Our senior security engineers do that part: a human review, not another automated scanner.
45% of AI-generated code samples introduce an OWASP Top 10 vulnerability.

"Developers who used an AI assistant wrote significantly less secure code — and were more likely to believe it was secure — than those who didn't."
A scanner tells you what a pattern looks like
It can't tell you what your application actually does with that pattern, or whether the flaw it just flagged is the one that gets exploited next week. That's still a judgement call — and we've been making those calls for three decades of security engineering experience, now applied to the AI-coding era.
What an automated scanner does
- Pattern-matches against known vulnerability signatures
- Flags issues without judging whether they're actually exploitable
- Misses authorisation and business-logic flaws — the same Broken Access Control category GitHub named the top vulnerability class this year
- Hands you a findings list, buried in false positives
What our senior engineers do
- Read the code the way an attacker would, not the way a linter would
- Trace how a flaw chains across files, endpoints, and auth boundaries
- Tell you which findings are real and which are noise
- Hand you fixes your team can ship, not just a PDF
See what AI-generated code is breaking this month
We log real vulnerabilities, incidents, and patterns turning up in AI-assisted codebases as they surface — not a once-a-year roundup. If your team shipped something with an AI coding tool recently, it's worth a look.

Human security engineers review the code your AI tools wrote — before it becomes an incident report. Or, if you're here for the other reason, we still audit websites the old-fashioned way too.
